If they can't take this at home, round 2 likely won't happen. They have to come out swinging. If they limp into the second round, it won't last long.

Blown opportunity that I’m still mad about.
Trying to stay positive, it was nice to see Nylander setup two nice goals and Knies’ goal was an unreal effort.

Big 4 in the series after 4 games:
Marner: 7 points (tied for 3rd in the playoffs)
Nylander: 6 points (tied for 7th in the playoffs)
Matthews: 5 points (tied for 10th in the playoffs)
Tavares: 5 points (tied for 10th in the playoffs)
Marner/Matthews line 5v5:
Goals scored: 5
Goals against: 0
Tavares/Nylander line 5v5:
Goals scored: 3
Goals against: 1
Big boys came to play this series although would be nice to see Matthews step up even more.
3rd line is killing us though.
Marner: 7 points (tied for 3rd in the playoffs)
Nylander: 6 points (tied for 7th in the playoffs)
Matthews: 5 points (tied for 10th in the playoffs)

I like McMann, but that guy's offense has been non-existent for like six weeks now. I hope he can regain his scoring touch because they can use it.
Domi did have that OT winner, but he hasn't been great otherwise. Jankrok is kind of just there. Holmberg seems to be more effective when he's in the bottom six than when he's on the second line. Patches looks like... well, an old guy who hasn't played in weeks.
I'm assuming Robertson will draw back in.

Kinda feels like Game 5 is something close to a must-win. You don't want this going back to Ottawa having lost all momentum.

This was a game they could easily have won. Nothing to complain about. And you can't seriously expect to win every game.
A gentlemans sweep it'll be, in my opinion. Toronto wins it at home in game 5.
Might actually be better, so they don't get any rust waiting for the FKA/TB series to end.

Attention:
The Leafs are not going to go 16-0 in the playoffs.
I am not giving free Leafs Therapy because they didnt sweep the Sens. You're just going to have to move on...

Yeah I don’t think anyone expected Toronto to sweep this series, it’s just one game and luckily for us we’re going back home with a chance to close it off in front of our fan base. Hopefully the fans come out ready!!!

Holmberg has been great on all lines he's been on, I feel like he was such a vanilla player (not a bad thing) during the regular season and has found another gear right now, the 2nd line looks good with him on it, but I wouldn't be opposed to him being 3C/LW and trying to help spark that line.
Jarnkrok is on a line of people who are "just there", they are getting tough assignments and if that is all you notice from them, they are doing great.
Pacioretty has been absolutely terrible, Robertson should draw back in.
The third line in general has not been great, but they looked better with Robertson.

I wonder if Derek Lalonde managed to sleep last night. Hopefully the wet dream of a reverse sweep didn't keep him awake.

They missed a big opportunity last night. Could have had plenty of time off watching Tampa and Florida beat the shit out of each other, now it goes until at least Tuesday. Plus I assume more than a few of them are thinking about the last time they had a 3-1 series lead. Damn, they had so many chances too (including the 4min PP and multiple missed open nets).

Some nights just aren't happening. I'm beginning to think the heart and soul of the team are guys like Knies and Benoit.

Me too, Leafs in 5. Anyone whining is just a negative person, we're in great shape and could have easily won last night.

They are in the driver's seat but sorry not impressed with the core 4 other than in a few moments.
Credit for their lethal PP until last night's OT but let's face it, 5 on 5.
Marner breakaway goal in game 1 and assist to Matthews key goal in game 3.
Nylander cross ice passes to Rielly and OEL for goals in games 1 and 4.
Tavares for his goal scoring throughout the series.
Matthews assist on Marner's breakaway goal, scored a key goal into an wide open net while Ullmark was looking the other way. Wins the draw to Benoit for OT winner. Need more bud.
These are the guys who think they are worth 50% of your cap. Tavares, the least of the 4 has the most goals and fans want him to take a huge haircut.

What's the deal with zub's elbow on tavares? Bunting was suspended for 3 games doing the same thing.

If they were playing a team with a Price, Brodeur or Hasek in goal and a D with a stud like Weber, Hedman, Pronger, Robinson, Potvin, Orr, Makar etc. there is a chance of a reverse sweep, but they are facing Ullmark and a sad Senators D let by Chabot and a young Sanderson. Sens are on life support IMO.

They paid his two buddies, they will do the same with Marner unless he saves them from their own stupidity and walks.

This team is so bi polar, can’t wait until the divas are all gone and it becomes Knies’ team, he’s the heart and soul of this team, something that xan be built on……
100%, would love a top player who has a career high of less than 60 points.
Bring back the good ol' days.
